Latest news....We're NOT in Malta!

Although the cancellation of our Malta trip has been disappointing we are trying to look on the bright side. It could have been far worse and at least we didn't actually get as far as leaving for the airports on Friday. (It ought to be mentioned that there are some that think that Tony's Tours must have been responsible for this hiccough though!) 

The weekend started very fraught with phone calls flying everywhere. We watched every possible news bulletin in the hope that somehow we would manage to go after all. Once it was clear that we wouldn't be going anywhere at least we could start on the business of trying to get everyone's refunds organised. Thank you to all of you who were booked to come with us for your patience while we wait to hear back from the airline and the hotel.

We are considering rescheduling the trip for the beginning of November. If you are interested let us know.

In the mean time

We're here and the weather here is wonderful - and Abercastle is just crying out to  be dived. Jen and Bob dived at the weekend and enjoyed 7-8m vis!   - it might not be Malta but it will be a lot less hassle than trying to get anywhere else abroad!! We do currently have some space available this Saturday and Sunday. If you fancy a dip don't hesitate to give us a ring.

Easter

Should have been a busy time for us with Sarah coming to visit from Dorset but the weather had other ideas. 

With conditions like this it was impossible to guarantee that any diving would be possible. Who would have guessed that after all of this on Wednesday...

...that Saturday would dawn bright and  sunny with flat calm seas!! 

While most of the diving over Easter weekend had to be cancelled, congratulations go to Mena and Nigel for completing their Rescue diver course. 

Well done to Alice who seemed to thoroughly enjoy her dry suit course and spotted an octopus too. The vis was incredible considering we went out only days after the storms. 

We had glorious weather the weekend after Easter and the diving didn't disappoint at all. We even found a naked sponge crab!!

Since the last newsletter Ann has completed the BSAC Instructor Foundation Course so is now an Assistant Diving Instructor as well as a PADI DM and DUP Instructor.

Maldives

Apologies for the error in the Maldives Newsletter - the proof reader missed the deliberate mistake! The dates  should have read 10th October - 20th October.

We can confirm that this trip is going to go ahead and currently we have two spaces still available. If you would like more information please email HERE

Don't forget...

We now have several courses booked in over the next few weeks so it is not too soon to be thinking about contacting us if you have particular dates in mind. PADI or BSAC courses, boat hire or escorted dives we don't mind but just let us know when you want to come!
